Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) lacks effective treatment, and studies have shown that PARPi inhibitors, such as Olaparib, are somewhat effective; however, the efficacy of Olaparib in CRPC still needs to be further improved. Nitrogen permease regulator-like 2 (NPRL2) is reported to be a tumor suppressor candidate gene and is closely related to the DNA repair pathway, which can affect the sensitivity of many chemotherapeutic drugs. However, there is no research on whether NPRL2 is associated with sensitivity to Olaparib. Hence, in the present study, we examined the NPRL2 expression levels in several PCa cell lines (LNCaP, PC3, and enzalutamide-resistant LNCaP, named LNPER) by Western blot. In addition, we investigated the role of NPRL2 expression and silencing in cell proliferation and in the regulation of ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM), which can mediate DNA repair and sensitivity to Olaparib. Furthermore, we performed in vitro and in vivo experiments to determine the mechanism of action of NPRL2 in adjusting Olaparib sensitivity. Our findings demonstrated that the NPRL2 expression level was upregulated in PCa cells, especially CRPC cells. NPRL2 overexpression promoted growth and resistance to Olaparib, and NPRL2 silencing inhibited proliferation, enhanced sensitivity to Olaparib, and increased CRRL2 expression in PCa cells. In addition, the Olaparib-induced growth delay in NPRL2-silenced PC3 tumors in mice correlated with ATM signaling downregulation, an apoptosis increase and migration/invasion suppression. Our results indicate that NPRL2 silencing enhances sensitivity to Olaparib treatment in CRPC and that NPRL2 may serve as a potential therapeutic target and predict resistance to Olaparib in CRPC.  相似文献

Early studies suggested both TR3 orphan receptor (TR3) and apoptosis mediator E2F1 might play an important role in mediating prostate cancer cell apoptosis. Their linkage and relationship, however, remain unclear. Here we found that 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) could induce cell apoptosis via induction of TR3 and E2F1 expression in LNCaP prostate cancer cells. Addition of antisense E2F1 could partially rescue the TR3-mediated cell apoptosis, and transfection of the TR3 dominant-negative plasmid could block the TR3-induced E2F1 expression. These data suggest that TPA is able to induce LNCaP cell apoptosis via induction of TR3 resulting in the induction of E2F1. Promoter reporter assays show that TR3 can induce E2F1 expression via binding to the TR3 response element (TR3RE) in the E2F1 promoter -316 to -324 bp region. TR3 can bind specifically to this TR3RE with a Kd of 6.29 nm, and mutations of this E2F1-TR3RE can partially block the TR3-mediated E2F1 expression. Taken together, these data suggest that TPA is able to induce cell apoptosis via a TPA --> TR3 --> E2F1 --> apoptosis pathway in LNCaP cells. Further studies of how to modulate this pathway may allow us to better understand how to control the prostate cancer growth.  相似文献

Activation of the PI3K/AKT signal pathway is a known driving force for the progression to castration-recurrent prostate cancer (CR-CaP), which constitutes the major lethal phenotype of CaP. Here, we identify using a genomic shRNA screen the PI3K/AKT-inactivating downstream target, FOXO4, as a potential CaP metastasis suppressor. FOXO4 protein levels inversely correlate with the invasive potential of a panel of human CaP cell lines, with decreased mRNA levels correlating with increased incidence of clinical metastasis. Knockdown (KD) of FOXO4 in human LNCaP cells causes increased invasion in vitro and lymph node (LN) metastasis in vivo without affecting indices of proliferation or apoptosis. Increased Matrigel invasiveness was found by KD of FOXO1 but not FOXO3. Comparison of differentially expressed genes affected by FOXO4-KD in LNCaP cells in culture, in primary tumors and in LN metastases identified a panel of upregulated genes, including PIP, CAMK2N1, PLA2G16 and PGC, which, if knocked down by siRNA, could decrease the increased invasiveness associated with FOXO4 deficiency. Although only some of these genes encode FOXO promoter binding sites, they are all RUNX2-inducible, and RUNX2 binding to the PIP promoter is increased in FOXO4-KD cells. Indeed, the forced expression of FOXO4 reversed the increased invasiveness of LNCaP/shFOXO4 cells; the forced expression of FOXO4 did not alter RUNX2 protein levels, yet it decreased RUNX2 binding to the PIP promoter, resulting in PIP downregulation. Finally, there was a correlation between FOXO4, but not FOXO1 or FOXO3, downregulation and decreased metastasis-free survival in human CaP patients. Our data strongly suggest that increased PI3K/AKT-mediated metastatic invasiveness in CaP is associated with FOXO4 loss, and that mechanisms to induce FOXO4 re-expression might suppress CaP metastatic aggressiveness.  相似文献

The epidemiologic association between statin use and decreased risk of advanced prostate cancer suggests that statins may inhibit prostate cancer development and/or progression. Studies were performed to determine the effects of a model statin, atorvastatin (ATO), on the proliferation and differentiation of prostate cancer cells, and to identify possible mechanisms of ATO action. ATO inhibited the in vitro proliferation of both LNCaP and PC3 human prostate cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent fashion. The greater inhibitory activity of ATO in PC3 cells was associated with induction of autophagy in that cell line, as demonstrated by increased expression of LC3-II. miR-182 was consistently upregulated by ATO in PC3 cells, but not in LNCaP cells. ATO upregulation of miR-182 in PC3 cells was p53-independent and was reversed by geranylgeraniol. Transfection of miR-182 inhibitors decreased expression of miR-182 by >98% and attenuated the antiproliferative activity of ATO. miR-182 expression in PC3 cells was also increased in response to stress induced by serum withdrawal, suggesting that miR-182 upregulation can occur due to nutritional stress. Bcl2 and p21 were identified to be potential target genes of miR-182 in PC3 cells. Bcl2 was downregulated and p21 was upregulated in PC3 cells exposed to ATO. These data suggest that miR-182 may be a stress-responsive miRNA that mediates ATO action in prostate cancer cells.  相似文献

目的:观察前列腺癌组织及不同前列腺癌细胞系中miR-182的表达,并探讨下调其表达对前列腺癌细胞增殖和凋亡的影响及机制。方法:采用实时荧光定量PCR(q RT-PCR)检测30例前列腺癌组织和30例相应的癌旁组织以及前列腺正常上皮RWPE-1细胞、前列腺癌PC-3、LNCa P和DU145细胞中miR-182的表达,进一步采用Lipfectamine 2000脂质体转染miRNA-182 inhibitor和阴性对照miRNA于PC-3细胞后,通过噻唑蓝(MTT)比色法检测细胞增殖情况,流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率,免疫印迹(Western blot)法检测转录因子FOXO1、血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)和抑癌基因p53蛋白的表达。结果:miR-182在前列腺癌组织中的表达明显高于癌旁组织(P0.05);miR-182在前列腺癌细胞系PC-3、LNCa P和DU145中的表达均高于前列腺正常上皮细胞RWPE-1(P0.05),其中PC-3细胞中miR-182表达水平最高。转染miRNA-182 inhibitor至PC-3细胞成功下调miR-182表达后,细胞的增殖能力明显受到抑制,细胞凋亡能力明显增强,FOXO1表达水平显著升高,VEGF和p53的表达明显降低,差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:miR-182在前列腺癌组织及细胞中呈高表达,下调miR-182的表达可能通过增加FOXO1的表达并减少VEGF和p53的表达,抑制前列腺癌细胞增殖并诱导细胞凋亡。  相似文献
